When I moved to Washington, D.C, I left all of my friends behind.1 new acquaintances to home-cooked meals was my best 2 to make new friends. Given that my food was pretty good, everyone was soon asking me for the3 , which was how Bun Bo Bae, my cooking blog came into being.
In hindsight(事后看来), I've probably been 4 to start a food blog. I spent most of my childhood in the kitchen with my mom. I would watch her cook,5 a lot of knowledge of cooking. To my6 , I left for college before I could learn my mom's best dishes.
I went to France to study. I was 7 alone for the first time in my life. There were no roommates, dorms or dining halls. I was 8 homesick. So, I started calling my mom and asking for the recipes for my favorite dishes. As it9 , my mom didn't have any recipes. She just taught me how to cook intuitively(凭直觉地); thus, I learned to cook by 10 and feeling my food.
Bun Bo Bae was initially a space for me to put what I learned into writing. I wanted to write down every 11 I was given in detail. Later on, I 12 more. I created some recipes by myself. Soon my food blog and follower count grew.
Bun Bo Bae increased my 13 at work. I knew I was a great cook, but I had no idea how to make a website. So I taught myself web building. And the14 helped me land my job at NPR, where one of my recipes was 15 in a famous cafeteria.
